The Trail Blazers’ top offseason plan became more clear on the second day of free agency: Sign big men LaMarcus Aldridge and Greg Monroe to maximum contracts.

Neil Olshey, the Blazers’ president of basketball operations, headed a Blazers contingent that met with agent David Falk in Washington D.C. early Wednesday to pitch the idea of Monroe playing next to Aldridge.

Aldridge continues to have meetings with teams, and has made no official indication as to where he will sign this offseason. However, a video with assistant coach Kim Hughes that surfaced Wednesday night indicates that the Blazers may not have anticipated a return of Aldridge this offseason.

Former New York Times reporter Howard Beck commented on Twitter that the Blazers’ falling contender status played a role in Monroe’s decision.
